Alright, since I work for Temple Records, Khan's old record store here in
NYC, I should set the record straight somewhat.

Air Liquide is Khan's brother, Cem. Khan is responsible for Bizz OD, Super
8, Cube 40, Captain Comatose and a million other things. His real name is
Can (pronounced "Khan") Oral (pronounced "Oh-raal"). He's a Turk, originally
from Cologne, who emigrated to the US years ago. His brother Cem still lives
there, and was the one responsible for opening up the shops in Cologne. Khan
lives in New York now. He opened up and used to own Temple Records back in
95.

His music is very eclectic, from early minimal house and acid to trip hop.
Nowadays he's doing a peculiar mix of psychedlic rock and minimal techno.
Good stuff, fun and trashy.
